I was apprehensive about booking a bottomless brunch here as I assumed we would be waiting a while between drinks. However I couldn’t fault the service at all! When our server (unfortunately I didn’t catch her name) noticed we were close to finishing a drink, she promptly arrived to take another order. We were seated at the end of the restaurant separate from the hustle and bustle also. Our visit was a birthday treat for my Mum and we all thoroughly enjoyed the experience, could not recommend more!

Calamari oily. Lasagne stodgy as 2 sheets stuck together and overcooked. No seasoning either. Husband enjoyed his meal though. Had to ask twice for a couple of things. Meals not confirmed before walking away and had to amend something quickly. Felt a bit rushed. Overpriced in places too.

About the restaurant

WELCOME TO SMOKEHOUSE
THE HOME OF THE MODERN BBQ

At Smokehouse, heat’n’meat is at the heart of our passion for Modern BBQ. With “Bubba” our specially imported smoker from the U.S. we can create the tastiest, finger-lickin' smoked meats on this side of the pond. Here’s the rub! Before cooking we massage our meat with our own secret blend of herbs and spices to give it the unique flavour only found at Smokehouse. The Wood. For a great BBQ you’re gonna need wood! We prefer Hickory and Cherry to give it a touch of sweetness.

Fabulous food, atmosphere and service. Warm and welcoming staff, fast service and the food was cooked to perfection. Highly recommend the brisket and rib combo, and the chicken and prawns with spicy mac and cheese was delicious. Will definitely be back!
